Seems like it is the season for seized PT motors, My son has brought over a few recently and I think there was 4 that were seized and a couple had had the starters removed and water had got in. One he picked up from the nature strip outside a mower repair mans place,was one that the starter had been removed because you can get $25 for a pull start but struggle to get $25 for the complete mower. My son was talking to the chap and he gave my son a brand new Victa base, no wheels,not sure what it is but it is for the post PT bases. It still had the Bunnings receipt on the handle for $400 on it, bloke said he needed the motor from it, I can't get my head around it, if it was a new motor he wanted you can get a Chonda type motor brand new for $160. I will have to go and talk to this bloke to understand what he is up to.
